I believe that there is an academic update period in November (so I hear).

Does anyone know when this begins? Also, is it an update through AADSAS?

I appreciate any help. I could seem to find anything regarding this when I briefly looked at AADSAS. 🙂
 
So we can only do it once, correct?
Meaning I have to wait until January when my fall marks are available.
Too bad, I'd like my summer marks to show up asap.

Lol...I know EXACTLY what you mean. 👍
 
Haha I'm in the same boat. I did really well this spring/summer so I want those up! But I have to wait until January also.. :-/
 
Couple questions:

1. Do we need to mail transcript matching forms along with the trancripts?

2. Will academic update reach schools on time to affect school decisions for Dec. 1?
 
I took O. Chem II over the summer which was not part of the transcript I sent to AADSAS when I applied. Should I wait until the end of my fall semester to submit the academic update since I am still taking classes or should I do it immediately so that they can see the O. Chem grade?
 
I think it depends on your situation? I'm going to update right away because I think my summer grades will strengthen my application before its too late in the cycle.

I'm taking one course this fall but it's not a prereq so I'm not going to sweat it ... I can send them the rest of my transcripts after the acceptance letter 🙂 :xf:
